Update kernel-parameters.txt to add two new parameters:

- coresight_cpu_debug.enable is a knob to enable debugging at boot time.
- coresight_cpu_debug.idle_constraint is used to constrain idle states
  to ensure Coresight CPU debug component can be accessible.

+                       0: default value, disable debugging

+       coresight_cpu_debug.idle_constraint
+                       [ARM,ARM64]
+                       Format: <int>
+                       Some platforms have designed the idle states to disable
+                       CPU power domain and need manually set constraint so
+                       can access coresight CPU debug component safely. Setting
+                       this parameter for latency requirement in
+                       microseconds, finally we can constraint all or partial
+                       idle states to ensure the CPU power domain is enabled.
+                       Default is -1, which means no limiation to CPU idle
+                       states; if set to 0, this means disabling all idle
+                       states; user can choose other platform dependent values
+                       so can disable specific idle states for the platform.

        cpuidle.off=1   [CPU_IDLE]
